explains the federal tax law for tax-exempt organizations that receive tax-deductible charitable contributions.

There are two general rules that must be met in order to be in compliance with the substantiation and disclosure requirements:

a donor is responsible for obtaining a written acknowledgment from a charity for any single contribution of $250 or more before the donor can claim a charitable contribution on his/her federal income tax return;

a charitable organization is required to provide a written disclosure to a donor who receives goods or services in exchange for a single payment in excess of $75.

Although it is the donor’s responsibility to obtain a written acknowledgment for a contribution, and an organization that does not acknowledge a contribution incurs no penalty. Nonprofits can assist a donor by providing a timely, written statement containing the following information: 1. name of organization 2. amount of cash contribution 3. description (but not value) of non-cash contribution 4. statement that no goods or services were provided by the organization in return for the contribution, if that was the case 5. description and good faith estimate of the value of goods or services, if any, that an organization provided in return for the contribution

The acknowledgment may be in an email. The charity should not include the donor’s social security number on the letter; it is not necessary to include the charity’s tax identification number on the acknowledgment.
